And this is why I believe Orion won’t end up sleeping with any maid in Hyril’ar. Even if none of the girls are there to know what he’s doing—except maybe Calypso—he himself would feel guilty. I mean, he told that vendor/therapist in the Valley of Kings realm that he wants his relationship with the girls to work. So going off and hooking up with a random maid in a distant realm while all his girls are freaking out with worry over whether he’s even alive seems completely counterintuitive.

No, in 9.0 we are shooting past the damn maids and making it straight to their Princess!
Who tf is expecting a scene with maids when their princess herself is there lol

Well, when the elves are ready to kill Orion (or any human) who even looks wrong at the princess, people are thinking that it may still be a while before Caly and him can do anything so they are wishing that we can still get some elf action with a maid or something. Maybe even with the princess watching and egging it on, could be fun.

Them being hostile means it'll just add to their thrill. Pretty sure there was a line before where Calypso was interested in the human-elf forbidden romance like her ancestor :sneaky:

so much elf thirst happening right now XD
let me try and give elf gooners something to theorize about :p
do you guys think first time with calypso gonna be in real world? like orion use his powers to take calypso in his world where there is no elves and no rules and nothing (potentially she does not even have her powers as elven magic wouldnt work in human world) and that is where they do it for the first time safe from forbidden bs

Two actually, the first one in the Ogygya server where Orion, Alex and Nova rescue Cali, she talk about it with Alex because looking at Alex hairs, she thought she was the daughter of an elf and human.
The second one when Orion, Alex and the princess go the Boyle mansion searching for infos, her and Orion have a second talk about it. :)

I think it'll be in her world. Maybe there is one of those secret places she goes for meditations or something

do you think it will happen in next patch or how/why do you think they will get back to her world again? also do you think calypso will stay in her world starting next update as she has no interest in eternum and this whole time all she wanted was to get back which now allegedly they did in the cliffhanger?

0.8.4? What's with the .4 at the end? That wasn't there the last time I looked. Someone please tell me they deleted the office scene? That's such a major black eye on an otherwise amazing game.

It's just a later release version with a few fixes and no, that scene obviously wasn't removed and it is actually pretty good. If you find it annoying, just skip through it.

Pretty what? I couldn't disagree more. While Eternum overall is one of the best VNs out there, the office scene is one of the worst parts I've seen across all VNs. And I am a Stanley Parable fan...but that scene is the total opposite of Stanley Parable that looks like it was made by someone who didn't understand what made the Stanley Parable good. Horrid narrator, bad story for the part, etc. The sad part is that is was probably the most expensive part of the game too since they probably paid for the voice acting, even though is was bad, so at this point it's probably sunk cost fallacy where it was too expensive to throw away even though it makes the game worse.

I feel like not knowing all the details is an important caveat. Did we get some answers about these? Yes. We're missing enough of the details that it hardly feels like a shortage of mystery.

- We still don't know exactly what Eternum is, or the purpose of the gems (I have my suspicions, based on the battle scene from Calypso's story, which may be confirmed in the next update).
- We don't know who the Founder is (or did I miss that somehow?) or what he wants.
- The mystery of why Thanatos is still around in Eternum is as big, if not more so, than who he is. Who he is turned out to be relatively unimportant.
- We haven't solved the mystery of Orion's powers, other than that they're probably related to him being 100% compatible. The underlying mystery of why does he have 100% compatibility remains unanswered. (I know you said this one wasn't solved)
- Same with Idriel and the Immortals.
We already have high level answers to all of those except Orion's nature though, and the details don't feel all that impactful. It's like the difference between knowing about Zion in The Matrix, and seeing Zion. Did seeing Zion really feel expansive?

Eternum is just there, the way our universe is. What is the purpose of our universe? What is the purpose of our solar systems? The Founder is just some dude with really high compatibility who saw a way to profit. We already know Thanatos is one of many who have been transplanted permanently into Eternum, and he has Hyas. Idriel is a slave of the Founder, and the Immortals are oppressors.

Add to that some of the NRT undertone and I can understand that a lot of people don't like it...
This is one little unfortunate thing about all of Caribdis' works in principle. It's ALWAYS been there. I love his central messages of "Don't be a scumbag" and "Don't be a pussy".

However...

There's just a wee bit too much epmhasis in his games of "or else other men are gonna fuck your girl" that none of the other top visual novels have (BAD, Ripples). He's definitely more focused on the competition between men for women

Gotta say, writing in this game is top notch, especially the main plot, putting many newer AAA games to shame.
I know most of the content is reference's to hollywood movies and games but still. Can't believe i missed this game for so long.
Rarely you see side/insignificant characters in games that can make you lol like Jerry.
